Yeah, now that several upgrades have already been issued, it's about time for Merrill Laggard, I mean Merrill Lynch to upgrade ASND. I bet they have a 12 month price target of $45, which they'll raise by summer once ASND trades above $40. Been there done that! Here's hoping Mo visits ASND someday soon! -John Dodson

ML has not upgraded as of 8:42pm PST today. I just checked the database. Their latest analyst comment was January 21, 1998, in which it was my feeling the Joe Bellace (the analyst from ML) needed a hearing aid. Although he asked the first question is the conference call after the earnings release, I don't think he listened to anything said after that question. I check for a ML opinion change every morning when I look at my account balances. One of the folks over on Yahoo has often said that ML will up grade tomorrow, and he has always been wrong todate.
